+* '''Arcade version specific:''' After inserting a credit, hold buttons C & D and then press Start to swap Auto-fire to button C and Barrier to button D. Much like Espgaluda 2, Dodonpachi Dai-Fukkatsu, and Akai Katana, the game allows you to swap whether the auto-fire button is on button D or on button C. However, instead of being a selectable control scheme after shot type/character selection, it's done via this button input on the start screen. You can release the buttons once you're at the character select screen.
 Gameplay revolves around picking up gems which are dropped by enemies, then using the characters' psychic powers to enter [[#Kakusei_Mode|Kakusei Mode]], which consumes gems and slows down all onscreen bullets, and causes all bullets shot by an enemy to be destroyed when the enemy is destroyed - known as a [[bullet cancel]]. Points are awarded per destroyed bullet, with more points awarded for more bullets destroyed. This results in a gameplay loop of collecting gems, entering Kakusei mode and destroying as many bullets as possible, exiting the mode and repeating the process.

 Version differences between the arcade release and the Playstation 2 arcade mode are minimal. In the arcade release, the stage 3 midboss will spawn more bullets from its pod attack when the player is on the Player 2 side. The Playstation 2 version fixes this discrepancy by making both sides behave like Player 2.
-The Playstation 2 release also includes an [[arrange]] mode, with significantly more bullets, and playable characters from [[ESP Ra.De.|ESP Ra.De]].
